Describe the bug
Some glyph of combinations of the font have weird rendering.

  • Digits 0, 6 and 9 aren't rendered properly, there are "small holes" in the font
  • Arrows (->, -->, etc.) aren't perfectly straight...
  • /* and */ is completely broken.

Seems like the theme or the text color doesn't change anything.

To Reproduce
Type some text as described above on any file.

Expected behavior
The text is rendered properly

They're called "ligatures" and come from FiraCode. It's intended, and the only way to "fix" it would be to add a font picker, which isn't there yet

There is a bug with the built in fira code font, I checked using the one on my system and everything is rendered fine, this could be fixed by #66.

We can also update the built in font, as that's the one with the issues.

@face-hh The holes they mentioned are a bug with the font, which can be fixed by updating the built in font.
